overwhelmed ftm 12 weeks

(please dont freak put on me for this)
So i know its frowned upon but so far ive had a small intake of my medical cannabis due to being off all of my anxiety and depression medications and to helo manage my ptsd flashbacks. Also ive been doing it so i can eat. I cant seem to even put food in my moyth without wanting to puke. I planned on stopping by my second trimester. Now i dont know what to do. I puked up everything i ate yesterday (thanksgiving) and had only smoked a small amount in the morning. I havent been able to eat since about 2pm yesterday. I puked it up around 6pm. I tried to eat to day and had to spit it out in a hurry so i wouldnt puke again. I dont know what to do and im scared that im going to starve my baby because i cant eat and grim the extreme anxiety. Is there any other natural non-pharmaceutical way to  make it so i can eat!

Without medicinal marijuana, I felt as though my child would not have survived due to the fact that I couldn't tolerate food. Do what's best for your body and your child. Its my 2nd time around and medicinal marijuana is helping me again, its no more harmful than class c medication for anxiety and PTSD, my child forces the medication back up good luck

I want to start by saying don't be ashamed. I have a 26month old child, and I am almost 12weeks pregnant with my 2nd. Unfortunately I have PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Plus I get really bad morning sickness. With my 1st child I couldn't find anything else besides medicinal marijuana that helped with everything. I honestly use it right before I need to eat. My first child is 26months old and he is very healthy and very smart. My doctor told me when pregnant with my first if that's the way for you to make sure that baby doesn't starve, as mothers we must do what's best. Starving your child is not great of course and its how I felt, without medicinal marijuana
